Hi all, I apologise for not being around but I caught a stomach virus, I will be reading all my e-mails today and coming to visit, until then I thought you might like to see my little gift bag, I found this tutorial on Vicki's blog, Stamp Smiles, she calls it a bagalope as it is made from an envelope.

I found some spare yellow envelopes and used one as the bag, I followed the tutorial and used an EK border punch for the top, I have used one of the new vintage images from Pink Gems and coloured her with Copics, I have used Joanna Sheen tapestry embossed black card, gold linen effect card, paper from Ooh La La new CD, yellow organza bow, one of my own double layered crochet flowers, paper clip and sentiment.

My son James will be giving this bag to my sister for her birthday filled with some of my crochet flowers.

The topper and papers are all from the set, I mounted all onto purple card, punched a border under the image then added some paper roses, punched butterflies, sentiment and Viva Decor

I do hope that you will join us and show what inspires you, all are welcome, it would be lovely to see some Ooh La La images/papers used but it is not necessary, there are some freebies available for you to use just follow the links on the challenge blog.

I would like to thank you for visiting my blog I do hope that you like my card, I would also like to offer my thanks to everyone that has left me comments on my previous posts, I have managed to catch up on quite a few but I will be around to see you all soon.
